Default Ceiling Fan in Master Bathroom

Thinking of adding a ceiling fan in the master bathroom. Have you done this and would you do it again.

I’ve had 14 new homes always take down the cheap fans and put up expensive ones. I can’t insert why you have a need for fan in master bath , you do have a blower in there don’t you ? I have never seen one in any home I’ve ever been in although I’m sure we ar going to hear from people no one could ever convince me of a reason to have one and I have had some pretty big master baths

We have never had a master bath without one.

We have all the fans in the house on 24/7 (one in every room).
Helps distribute the cool in summer and the heat in winter.

In the master bath it definitely contributes to keeping moisture in the air to a minimum.

To each his own.

We have ceiling fans in every bedroom but I've never thought of putting one in the bathrooms. The already installed exhaust fans seem to work good enough for us.

Love, love, ours! I would do it again in a heartbeat. The bathroom gets so hot and steamy even with the exhaust fan.
You have to get one that has short blades and is wet rated.

....a ceiling vent fan and a ceiling fan in our Master bath room. The ceiling vent fan is great at pulling out the humid air from when the shower is used, especially during the summer. The ceiling fan is great at circulating the air which allows for rapid drying in the bathroom and helps prevent the chances for mold/mildew to occur.
I would install again!

Works for us. Just make sure of the size. Measure ceiling area in location you are thinking of.

We have a ceiling bathroom. I wouldn't go without it. You dry off faster and the mirrors don't get all steamed up.

We always put a ceiling fan in the master bath. Great when you get out of the shower. We had an electrician rough in the power then I purchased and hung the fan myself.

We were able to remove one of the ceiling lights, and replace with a ceiling fan with a light kit. Only drawback both the light and the fan are on or off at the same time, and actually this does work out well for my wife, I rarely use it, but she loves it.

our house came with a ceiling fan in the master BR...it was the standard white with no light

we went over to Dan's Fans on 441/27 and picked out one that my bride liked (with a light)...they installed it for like $25 bucks

We were used to having a window open up north when we retired at night....not going to do that down here....so the fan is on
every night and we're happy

Our neighbor put a ceiling fan in her Master bathroom. After seeing hers, we ordered one for ourselves. We love the ceiling fan and it came with a switch that we could use to adjust the speed. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

*I wouldn't think of not having a fan in my master bedroom. Our fan runs full time. We keep the temperature of our house at 77-79 degrees and fans in each room makes it very comfortable.

I changed out the bathroom light and put in a small ceiling fan. Also added a skylight over the shower. It helps cool it down after a shower. Yes, would do it again.

Mine runs just about 24/7 and almost 365 days a year. Oops, misread that as bedroom fan. No, I wouldn't have a fan in the toilet/shower area. Mine is in the sink area and I never turn it on.
